Vanessa + Shan Wedding in The Wedding Pavillion Calgary

Besides the well-known Chinese tea ceremony, here is another traditional Chinese wedding custom: hiding the bride’s wedding shoes. The bride need to hide the wedding shoes before the groom comes to her home to escort her to the wedding. Upon arrival at the bride’s home, many obstacles are already set for the groom and groomsmen. The red bag is an ideal method to buy one’s way through these obstacles.While waiting for the groom, family members of the bride have already hidden her shoes and left her on her bed. The groom must first find the shoes of his bride before taking her to the wedding. After winning his bride, the groom will hold his bride in his arms to take her to his car.

We had so much fun of capturing Vanessa and Shan’s wedding last month. Congratulations and all the best to your happy married life!
